Abstract

The COVID-19 epidemic has affected the psychological well-being and daily life of college students, leading to a decrease in their quality of life. Health status can be influenced by a variety of factors. This study aims to assess the current health status of university students and explore the relationships among COVID-19 care knowledge, self-efficacy, healthy lifestyle behaviors, and health status and how these factors are influenced. Among the 1694 participants, 49.4% were male, 50.6% were female, and 82.2% were freshmen. The results revealed that health status across all dimensions decreased to some extent. COVID-19 care knowledge affected both physical and mental component summaries. The results suggest that improving COVID-19 care knowledge, strengthening self-efficacy, and promoting the development of healthy lifestyle behaviors can positively impact their health status. Here, we explore the health status of college students with COVID-19 infection and the factors and mechanisms that influence it to guide health interventions to better meet the challenges posed by future outbreaks.

Keywords: COVID-19 care knowledge; Health status; Healthy lifestyle behaviors; Self-efficacy.
